This book will definitely be included in my 2012 Christmas wishlist.

It
is a compilation of letters that former US President Ronald Reagan wrote to his
wife, Nancy Reagan. I am a sucker for love letters and sweet short notes.
Kahit sa used paper or sa chocolate wrapper pa yan nakasulat, okay lang!
hahaha. In this day and age when it's easier to just send an email
message, SMS; or post a message on one's Facebook wall, or tweet someone, I
really appreciate getting hand-written letters, cards and notes. Iba pa
din ang may personal touch (ang cheesy! hehe).
Below are some excerpts from the book:
"Darling Mommie
Poo,
Feb.14 may be the date they observe and call Valentine's Day, but that is for people of only ordinary luck. I happen to have a Valentine's life, which started on March 4, 1952, and will continue as long as I have you."

"Dear First
Mommie, I'm in Wyoming, Montana - or Nevada depending on what time you read
this. But I'll be at Camp David at 9:15 p.m. Friday night. I'll be glad to see
you. I miss you - even when I'm asleep. This is a very lonesome place when you
are some place else."
"Dear First Lady,
As President of the U.S., it is my honor and privilege to cite you for service
above and beyond the call of duty in that you have made one man (me) the most
happy man in the world for 29 years."
